I touched a raw nerve there.

It wasn't a raw nerve. It was an immature, upsetting, libellous comment which was made. I removed many comments from the thread on this subject yesterday and closed it as it had gone way off topic. I'm happy for this to be discussed but will not tolerate anyone who cannot abide by the rules.

If you can't prove it, don't say it.

Apparently she was filling in on LBC's early news this week.
Didn't turn up this morning it seems


seeing as she was inside a police cell from 1030pm Wednesday night until about 3pm Thursday, it would have been pretty difficult to have turned up at LBC!!!!!


Yes, thank you I worked that one out for myself

Because a highly respected news broadcaster is in serious trouble with the possible use of Class A drugs, thats why.

Heehee. Bad Girl

I don't think anyone is laughing at this situation.

As fab as I think Alison is, I wouldn't exactly call her "highly respected"! She's a fill-in on the news, for goodness sake, she's hardly Angela Rippon.

This is all being blown out of all proportion. Everytime I go out I see people dealing dodgy stuff, in my eyes she isn't exactly doing anything particularly shocking.

er... I am!

Anyone got any insider whispers on whether she is to be charged?
She's due back at the cop shop next week.

No further action is to be taken against Ms Bell.

I hope we see her back soon. Despite my comments 3 posts up, I still think she's a great presenter and has a lot of potential. ITV News should snap her up to boost their afternoon schedule.

Becky and Fiounnula seem to be managing quite well without her over on CNNI actually. Alison, although not one of my favourites, was watchable, but thats about all I can say.
